This description is one of the best I have heard on explaining the statement, ‘being empathic.’ As a somatic empath myself, it resonates and supports my own personal experience and awareness that I draw on to cultivate concepts for learning to expand consciousness outside limited social conditioning constraints.
If you enjoy this video consider how important it is to integrate this archetype Carl Jung describes into the mass consciousness for acceptance to replace the stigma that comes from limited institutionalized educational patterns currently.
The educational programs here at Inside Awareness Center for Integrative Somatic Learning have a somatic empathic foundation.

Last fall I began breaking down the learning components into easy pages to simplify and create ease in understanding what I offer under the individual life area focus of Feng Shui. This Feng Shui Map is a formula I use as a pattern as an easy somatic learning system to enable a mindfulness approach to settle the busy analytical nature that can be a constraint to shifting old habits in physical, mental and emotional responses.
The individual approaches range from logical concrete practical applications for personal skill development to exploring higher self-actualization patterns.
The practical functional international learning methods are Awareness through Feldenkrais, Culture of Values, Awareness through Communication, Awareness through Feng Shui, Value-Focused Business Culture, Cultivating Life with Goals and Awareness through Eating.
The web pages for higher self-actualization is Awareness through Life.
These learning opportunities reflect a lifestyle experience, however, breaking them down into these areas increases the potential to transform habits into expanding awareness for improving peace, harmony and abundance.

New News coming…..
I will be introducing a pattern of processing dialogue that may just be the key to cutting through conflict more easily in 2025. Using it these past years has proven to be like an exacto knife cutting through the resistance as it creates logic that is currently missing in our behaviour conditioning.
I will also be introducing clarity on a spontaneous behavioural response that is habitual that isn’t in the mainstream conversation yet. It has proven to be a game changer in posture awareness.
Stay tuned for these important topics.
In the fall I published some books on Amazon to support goal setting and value integration. They are:
I have individual Facebook Pages for the Topics that align with the above Ebepages. They have links on those individual web pages.
One Facebook Page I am devoting to the Divine Feminine may be interesting for some. This page will focus on topics of higher vibration aspects of femininity that include the balance of feminine and masculine energies that influence each person from a Divine Feminine Perspective.
Interacting with people to improve function using somatic movement I have noticed that there is a lack of being in nature with bare feet. This normal activity growing up in previous generations is now called earthing. It is trending as a wellness activity for grounding and improving mental, emotional and physical health. This is a strategy where shoes are taken off to put bare feet on the ground for twenty or more minutes a day. It is suggested that this strategy will reduce chronic pain, increase sleep and energy, lower stress, balance circadian rhythms and slow down aging.
This activity may not be available for students who have mobility restrictions and for those working long hours at a desk. I have learned that a grounding mat can support these people who cannot be outdoors. Reading about its potential I have read that while using the grounding mat one can reset their biological rhythms using the negative charge of electrons of the earth. There is a suggestion that these electrons increase antioxidants and neutralize free radicals.
From a Feng Shui perspective this grounding mat would be useful to balance out the electrical exposure from from all the devices and Wi-Fi waves.
Two popular grounding products are a grounding mat and a grounding sheet. The mat can be used under ones desk to rest feet on or on the desk to rest hands on. The sheet can b used on ones bed to rest on.
I decided to test a mat as I would like to have this type of tool to recommend for those who are not getting out into nature often. I found it easy to set up. It was a plug that goes into the electrical ground outlet that snaped to sheet or pad that has silver through it to conduct the negative charge. This same post can be pushed directly into the ground which is a nice alternative. The person who came up with this concept created their own with wire and a metal infused tape. He pushed the wire into the ground and attached it to the silver infused tape. The tape went across his bed. He came up with the idea after becoming ill with a serious condition. It made a difference in his condition that led him to follow it up with scientific studies.
Even though it suggested not to lay on it all night when first getting it, I didn’t listen. The suggestion was to use it during the day for shorter periods. So by not listening I was up all night. lol. My system is a-typical. I can’t take any sleep formulas. If I do I am wakeful all night, while others are put to sleep. It’s an energy thing. However, following their suggestions and only using it during the day for shorter periods it has improved the quality of my sleep.
Pictured above is a grounding sheet. I put my crystals on it during the full moon transition. I am not able to put them outside on the earth. Before and after I used dowsing rods to measure the field of the sheet and crystals. The field tripled outwards and upwards. If this interests you follow Feng Shui articles on our Awareness through Feng Shui news pages. Feng Shui is a pillar of Inside Awareness foundational teachings. It rests under the Higher Knowledge Life Area.

Consideration can only be truly achieved through the ability to balance the actions of listening and speaking equally.
COV’s Value observances in Nov to date :
Friendship
Peace, Clarity, Understanding & Resolution can only authentically be achieved through leadership training in the skills of listening and speaking
Dialogue and Listening are needed to have a balanced conversation of meaning. This balance brings success and achievement for all in relationships equally. When someone speaks they are leading the conversations and the listener is following.To have equality the speaker becomes the listener. This means the listener becomes the speaker.Leadership is a balance of giving and receiving in dialogue.
This pattern was developed from a talking circle. The format was to go around and ask each participant what the focused value word meant to them. Sometimes a definition from the dictionary was read out first. People often did not know the definition meaning. ‘Renee Lindstrom’
